Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 201 Concubine's Complaint
Moreover, if he went to Nansanso, he would be old enough to go to school. Even though Kangxi was one of the few people who knew Chengrui's true situation, he still had a hidden worry.
Even though Chengrui's body is not as fragile as outsiders imagine and his life is not in danger at any time, he is still extremely weak compared to normal people. Can Chengrui really withstand the hardship of studying?
You know, apart from the Four Books and Five Classics, the Qing Dynasty gained the world on horseback, so the prince of the Qing Dynasty naturally couldn't give up riding and shooting. You can't just set a precedent for Chengrui and let him not practice martial arts, right?
Kangxi still had great confidence in Chengrui, thinking that since this child was blessed by God, he would definitely get better. He just had to wait until he got better and then send him to the Shangshufang to study.
With this goal in mind, Kangxi actually forgot the fact that Chengrui was already seven years old. Of course, not everyone in the palace had forgotten about it. Even though everyone agreed that Chengrui would not live long, his status as the eldest prince meant that he would not keep a low profile.
However, most of the other people are not qualified to take care of this matter. Those who are qualified, such as the queen, are too lazy to urge Chengrui to make progress. She hopes that all the princes except Chenghu are unlearned and will rot in the mud.
Another example is the Empress Dowager. Since the first consultation with the imperial physician, Chengrui's pulse has always been taken care of by Kangxi's exclusive imperial physician. Otherwise, the news of Chengrui's improvement would have caused an uproar in the harem.
The Empress Dowager would naturally not remind Kangxi not to forget about Chengrui's move to Nansanso when the imperial physician had already sentenced Chengrui to death. Isn't this deliberately poking at people's hearts?
Of course, Ji Nai knew it, but she couldn't bear to part with Cheng Rui. Although Cheng Rui was already seven years old this year, in fact, he had only celebrated four birthdays. So when it was not mentioned, she happily pretended not to know.
At this moment, looking at Kangxi's eyes, Ji Nai's heart tightened, fearing that the other party would say something that Ji Nai would resist. Fortunately, perhaps Kangxi did not want to ruin the atmosphere at the moment, or perhaps he had other plans, so he did not say anything.
Although Ji Nai didn't know Kangxi's plan, he was very satisfied with his approach. In this way, Chengrui could stay with him for a longer period of time.
After all, if Kangxi didn't speak, the Empress wouldn't mention it. As for the Empress Dowager, not to mention that they were allies now, even if they were not, the Empress Dowager would not remind her easily.
Otherwise, if something happened to the frail Chengrui in the South Third Institute, wouldn't she, the one who spoke up, be the target of anger?
The family of three stayed in the Qianqing Palace for the whole day until the evening, when Ji Nai and Cheng Rui left. Of course, as it was getting dark, Kangxi was worried that something might happen to them, so he accompanied them all the way to the Zhongcui Palace.
It would be bad to let Kangxi brave the cold wind and go back under the cover of night, so he naturally rested in Zhongcui Palace.
This made all the concubines in the harem furious. What did the Emperor mean by this?
Didn't he say that he didn't like concubines from the harem to go to the front, and that the Qianqing Palace was where the emperor handled government affairs? Why did he make an exception for Ma Jia?
Not only that, you have to know that Ma Jia brought her child with her, and the two of them stayed in the Qianqing Palace for a whole day. Could it be that they wouldn't disturb the Emperor?
Moreover, His Majesty accompanied the mother and son back to Zhongcui Palace and stayed there for another night. How could others not be envious and jealous? After all, Ma Jia was pregnant and could not serve His Majesty.
That's it. His Majesty is still willing to stay in Zhongcui Palace and is unwilling to visit them. Isn't this a slap in their faces, saying that they together are not as good as a pregnant woman?
So, these people took the opportunity to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager and filed a complaint together.
Originally, they did not dare to take the lead, but the Queen was under house arrest, and Concubine Hui was confined in the palace to take care of her pregnancy. As for the protagonist who was accused today, he had already received the order of the Emperor and was exempted from paying respects for the sake of the royal heir.
Isn’t there an old saying that goes, when the tiger is away, the monkey is king.
Without the three huge mountains pressing down on her, and the other people all having the same status as her, they were all concubines, so who would be afraid of whom? Naturally, she became arrogant.
Moreover, the death of Prince Chengqing implicated the Empress and Consort Hui. Those who were smart could naturally figure out that the biggest beneficiary of this matter was Ma Jia. Considering that Ma Jia had been summoned by the Grand Empress Dowager, so...
Who knows, maybe Ma Jia is still fine, just because there is no solid evidence? I think the Empress Dowager must be dissatisfied with Ma Jia, and handing over Ma Jia's handle at this time will surely achieve three goals at once.
It would not only strike a blow to Ma Jia, but also please the Empress Dowager and establish her prestige among other concubines.
Didn't Concubine Hui ascend to the throne by stepping on the Queen's face? So even though Nara was still a concubine, she had already distanced herself from them.
The Empress Dowager sneered in her heart as she listened to the concubines' seemingly righteous words, which were actually full of jealousy.
No wonder, even with Concubine Hui's personality, the Emperor still loves her so much.
No wonder, among these batches of concubines who entered the palace, only Ma Jia and Nara were able to stand out in the end.
No wonder, the emperor seldom entered the harem in recent years. Even when he did, he mostly went to Zhongcui Palace and Yanxi Palace, even though Ma Jia and Nara were pregnant.
The truth is, these people in the palace are too bad.
The Empress Dowager listened to the nagging complaints, but let them go in one ear and out the other. At the same time, she was wondering whether she should take advantage of the small selection to pick a few more people for the Emperor to suit his taste, as there were still too few children in the palace.
The concubines found something wrong. Why did the Empress Dowager remain silent despite all the talk? Was she so angry at Ma Jia that she didn't want to talk? But the Empress Dowager's face was calm, and she didn't show any anger at all.
Could it be that the Empress Dowager didn't care about this? How could it be possible? Although they had only been in the palace for a few years and didn't know much about the Empress Dowager, they knew the Empress Dowager's taboo - favoring only one person.
The Empress Dowager had been frightened by Huang Taiji and the previous emperor after their reign, and she absolutely hated concubines like Hai Lanzhu and Dong Efei.
Noticing that the concubines' voices had become quieter, the Grand Empress Dowager spoke up, "What's the big deal? When Concubine Hui was favored before, there were even more outrageous situations than this, and I didn't hear you say anything."
"Grand Empress Dowager, how can the two situations be the same!"
"Yes, Grand Empress Dowager. If it was just His Majesty staying in Zhongcui Palace, I and others would not say much. After all, Sister Ma Jia is pregnant. For the sake of the heir, His Majesty should comfort her more. But..."
